April showers bring May flowers! I wanted to make something quick but cute for Mother’s Day gifts and my search led me to these flower coasters. They could also be strung together to make a garland or crocheted with two strands together to make it thick enough to be a trivet. There are a number of possibilities for what you could do with these adorable flowers!

I opted to stick with the coaster for my gifts since time is running out leading up to Mother’s Day and these work up fast and easy.

WHAT MATERIALS DO I NEED TO CROCHET A FLOWER COASTER?

• Red Heart Super Saver in Bright Yellow & Dark Orchid
• Size G6/4mm crochet hook
• Yarn needle
• Scissors
• Flower Coaster, Paid Crochet Pattern from GreeneCraftsStore via Etsy

MATERIAL NOTES:

This pattern uses worsted weight yarn and it’s a great stash buster! I enjoyed making something that was back to basics with simple stitches, a hook, and some yarn.

HOW LONG DOES IT TAKE TO CROCHET A FLOWER COASTER?

One coaster takes 35 minutes from start to finish, including weaving in ends. Told you they are fast!

MEASUREMENTS:

The dimensions given in the pattern are 5.3”. Mine ended up being 5.75” wide.

GAUGE:

There was no gauge given and due to the way the stitches are done, I wasn’t sure how to provide a gauge of my own. This pattern is a relatively open pattern (meaning there are a number of holes) so there isn’t a clear way to measure out an area to compare gauge to.

PATTERN NOTES:

This pattern really is fast, easy, and adorable! Given how simple the pattern is to do, I feel like the flowers still look intricate and dainty. Especially if they were made in a finer yarn, to be a doily.

Overall, this is a great pattern and if you’re looking for a pattern with a lot of options, this is an awesome one!
